Trailer—Grease

Grease

This movie is such a classic musical and movie in general. The songs are so catchy and well known. Olivia and John made this movie as good as it is. But overall I wanted to do this review in tribute to Olivia, she put up a good fight but left too soon:(. She was only 73 and left us just yesterday. She left an everlasting impact on females, people and especially Australians. As an Australian she truly is an icon. RIP Dame Olivia Newton John.

I am a huge fan of Grease. I've seen the play and I've watched the movie at least 500 times. It captures everything high school is about. Even though it is set in the 50's, it seems to resonate even for today's generation. John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John are great in the movie as well as the rest of the cast. I met the girl of my dreams when I took her on a date to see the play, so this film has a special place in my heart.

Grease has to be the best musical off all the time. The wonderful actors and actress' give there characters all they've got and bring out a wonderful performance all the way through the movie especially John Travolta, Olivia Newton-John, Stockard Channing and Didi Conn. And, who can forget the music. Absolutely amazing. It's no wonder that the Grease soundtrack in the best selling musical soundrack ever. (It sure is brilliant.) Grease really is the word. It's fantastic. 10/10

Greaser Danny Zuko (John Travolta) returns from a summer of love with sweet girl Sandy Olsen (Olivia Newton-John). Instead of going back to Australia, she ends up in the same school as him. Danny is the leader of the T-Birds while Sandy joins up with the Pink Ladies. Danny can't quite bring himself to show his soft side in front of all the guys. This is a fun musical above all else. The music is infectious. Olivia Newton-John is wonderful singer, and actually quite a lovely actress. John Travolta is a good song and dance man. Some of the actors are pushing the age limit like Stockard Channing, but none of it matters as much the joy of this movie.

The perennial favourite. I like some of the songs, what can I say? A good '50s throwback with Travolta even slicker than he was in SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER. Less a film than some enthuasistic songs joined by a bit of plot.

Although it is old, Grease is still loved and watching by adults and children alike. Once you watch Grease you just want to get up and dance! Grease is the story of bad-boy Danny and good-girl Sandy meeting each other over summer break then happen to returning to the same school. There's a great mix of kids, they all are very different and have one thing that separates them very much from each other. There's a great mix of songs too; slow and very fast. Also, the dancing is amazing. The end also blows your mind and just makes you so astonished, but in such a good way. The up-beat fun never stops and makes you want to watch the movie again and again. Grease is a definite must see for everyone!

I watched this when it was transmitted over Christmas, and then watched in horror as the offended brigade started complaining. Made in 1978, it's the ultimate feel good film, sure it's over the top, it's absurd, and some of the scenes will have you maybe feeling a bit cringe worthy now, but it still remains a great film. As a youngster I watched it frequently, it's funny how some films stick with you, could I really believe in most of them as High school students, well I did back then. It is all about the music, music which is still iconic, and hopefully will be heard at theatres in the not too far off future. Would you make a film the exact same way now, of course not, is it ok to love a film made back in 1978, yes it sure is. Watch for the music, ending, and of course John Travolta. It really is the word. 9/10
